Our September 5th performer, multiple Juno Award-Winner, Old Man Luedecke's narrative-driven folk songs are playful, coy, and soul warming. His performances are rich but uncomplicated, known for their easy warmth and sincerity and the sparkle of his banjo and guitar work. His poetically crafted lyrics and catchy melodies deal with timeless emotion and explore the poignant intersections between hope and frustration, inspiration and disappointment, between what we might obtain and what we might lose.
Old Man Luedecke was scheduled to play in Ripton two years ago when his last record, Tender is the Night was nominated for ECMA Album of the Year. The East Coast Music Awards were scheduled for the same weekend as the coffee house, so we wished him well and cancelled his show. Tender is the Night ended up winning the 2014 ECMA Album of the Year as well as Folk Recording of the Year!
We are catching him on this tour as he celebrates the release of his latest album Domestic Eccentric, a collaboration with Grammy Award-winner Tim O'Brien. Domestic Eccentric was recorded last winter in a snowbound cabin he built by hand in the woods around Chester, Nova Scotia.
